Does this do well counting calories?

I can't really answer that because I didn't wear it often. I didn't find it to be that user friendly so I went back to using my Polar watch w/ heart rate monitor. You may want to ask other purchasers and/or do a customer review search to get a better cross section of opininos.

Sorry I cant help you. I got this for my husband to encourage him to be more active and he hasnt even opened it!

This watch doesn't count calories. It tells you the calories you've burned according to the steps you've taken in a given time. Say you walked/ran for 30 minutes and that was roughly 3000 steps (I am guessing here) it would say you've burned 200 calories (again a guess in the number) hope this helps

I don't believe it's meant to be used for tracking a whole day's calories, only because you tell it when to start and then you have to hold the button down for it to take your heart rate and update. I stopped using it not long after I bought it. The batteries don't last long, which means it doesn't track correctly at times and loses the info.

No, the Fitbit Zip does not. However you can sync it with MyFitness Pal for the food and it will show calories burned vs. calories eaten.

Yes it does. It tracks duration, distance, avg.pace, avg. speed, max speed, and calories.

No, it does not count calories. This is an old model computer and I'm not sure it's even for sale anywhere. I have three of these on three different bikes and one is a replacement for one that went haywire. My next one will use digital wireless signal instead of analog like the Vectra, which sometimes freezes up when I use a high-power headlight.

Yes, It also tells how many calories are burned based on speed and distance.

Yes it sure does. It tells you the amount of calories that you have burned and is read as kcalories.

I do no think it counts calories. It does a great job of heart rate. Telling time. Stop watch and others. Way to use I have a separate device I use for calories. Put a new battery in it pretty quick. Mine went dead fast with the original but great after replacing

Yes, but to get accurate reading you must touch the screen during your workout to get precise calorie burn reading.

This ped does measure distance & calorie count, but it also does a bunch of other stuff that I don't need. It also is set up to show the time of day... but that has become wrong, probably due to being shut down for awhile... and now I can't figure out how to reset it to the correct time.

Yes you do . It counts calories by heart rate. It is comfortable and you won't even know you have it on.

Still learning how to use it, but it tracks steps, miles, active minutes, calories burned and other things if you set them up. You put it on you somewhere (pocket, bra) and it will track this activity each day. I have already synched it to myfitnesspal and the new Aria scale that I just set up today. If you use myfitnesspal, it will add the calories burned from fitbit to your total calories allowed to give you a net consumption each day. I am still testing this all out, but I think it is a good way to track your activity, food and weight without having to enter information in multiple places. I like that the fitbit synchs to my computer and iphone via wifi. Still learning how to use it, but it tracks steps, miles, active minutes, calories burned and other things if you set them up.

This one does distance, steps taken and calories. I always question how accurate the calories are on these little pedometers but then I question that on any exercise machines also. Let's face it, if we eat too much we know it.

Yes it will track calories. But why would you buy gps tracker just to track cals. See Times hrm.

While I haven't bought a refurbished unit lately, the meters I've bought all had calorie counters and were the kind that tracked your pulse via analog straps (Pulsar, Timex,). The calorie count would of course be an approximation as no input is provided for age, weight, etc.

It measures your weight and syncs with the app very well. I find the body fat and hydration numbers are not as accurate. I would recommend this scale though.

As mention in my review, I use "MapMyFitness" apps. It contains calories and heart rate monitoring.
